Forsaken’ Is Basically ‘Dark Souls’ With Mecha-Dragons In Latest Trailer

Bleak Faith: Forsaken, which should just be called Bleak Faith or Forsaken but that’s another story, is a Soulslike that takes place amidst the ruins of a modern world. Medieval knights and spellcasters trudge through the fallen corridors of a long-lost time. Now, only the scaffolding of a lost civilization remains.

Well, that and mecha-dragons.

In Bleak Faith, players explore the sprawling, open-world Omnistructure and fight hideous monsters in what looks a heck of a lot like Dark Souls, but with that cool, post-apocalyptic twist.

Here’s the latest gameplay preview, showing a vastly improved boss fight:
